Figure 2: PIN8OX lines showed defects in many aspects of plant growth and development.

Figure 2

(a,b) PIN8OX lines flower earlier than the wild-type controls measured under long-day growth conditions. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean from three independent experiments (n=48, Student's t-test, **P<0.01). (c) PIN8OX lines showed strongly enhanced leaf margin serration under short-day growth conditions. (d,e) PIN8OX lines showed long hypocotyls compared with the control. Hypocotyl length was measured with 5-day-old seedlings grown under short days. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean from three independent experiments (n=30, Student's t-test, **P<0.01). (f) The cell length in PIN8OX lines is more than two times longer than that in the control (see the quantification data in Supplementary Table S2). The arrows indicate the intercellular space. Scale bar, 10 μm.
